Synopsis
Philosophical Disquisitions: Another Era, is the fourth book in Issert's series of books that focus on her life as a Midwest farmer's daughter who grew up in the 1960s and 70s, and how she weaves those lessons into life today. All books in her Philosophical Dissertation series bubble over with stories of growing up in a simpler time. A time when we were proud to face adversity and deal with austerity on our own merits.
There were less distractions, and that was OK. It was not a waste of time to lie in the grass and listen to an entire ball game. It was not a waste of time to ride a two wheeled bicycle for hours without ever leaving the gravel drive. Sunday was a sacred day to spend with family. We took time to share our history with each other. We didn't need national attention to do things right, we just did. If these thoughts make you think, "A ha. I remember those days." Maybe you weren't lucky enough to have lived during those idyllic days, and you want to peek into that era. Welcome these books into your library.
